Tacticalin An absolute waste of money

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

ryanbartlett-870-746486 Charlize Theron takes on the role of playing a mother of three in need of a revival. She shines in the role as she always does of riding the emotional rollercoaster in being a mother. With highs few and far between, writer Diablo Cody really took a deep dive into motherhood, not fully capturing what it's like to be a mother, but more of a take on how hard it can really be. How tired moms get, and how many responsibilities that they have to keep up with. This is shown off with her take on the idea of a night nanny, a young woman who comes in and helps out where she needs help. Which really is just showing the problems of being maybe not an absent father, but definitely not a very helpful father. With this new night nanny Marlo, played by Theron, hopes to have her life's stress to go away and for peace to fall upon her. From al of the biopics that comes out these days, there was so many indicators that this would be a biopic of a mother, one that has surprisingly not been done very well in the past. However, Cody decides to go down a more theatrical and dramatic take. With the addition of Tully in her life, the story takes many different turns and travels further past bio-pic and more into a dramatic almost thriller.

deb-481-36108 While the movie passes off as a comedy about how difficult it can be as a new mother, in reality the film is nothing more than a commercial for divorce lawyers, alcohol sales and affirmative action.1) As with all hollywood moves these days (and during the last 30 years), the lead persons of authority, such as the president, the commander, the highest CEO or in the movies case "the principal", is, of course, black.I don't know why the 'leader' in all films MUST be of color, since whatever the mission is, it's not working. People of color are facing extreme population decline and we all know how much this "put people of color in power in the movies" agenda is helping the unfortunate living in Chicago (64 murders last weekend alone).2) The lead actress hires a night nanny to help care for her newborn and for some insane reason, decides to party hard with here using alcohol and drugs. Later the two leading ladies decide to have a lesbian love affair and denigrate the hard working husband providing for his wife and children.3) Lastly, in a drunken drugged up stupor, the leading lady crashes her car into a river, almost dies, and while laying in intensive care, STILL craves her new lesbian lovers companionship.IMO, this film is just another typical sick, twisted waste of time packed with has-been actresses and filled with demented messages.If that's your cup of tea - enjoy it. Me personally, I will intentionally never watch another movie staring Charlen Theron again.

cruise01 Tully (4 out of 5 stars).Tully is a comedy drama film that shows the raw concept of a relationship between a mother and their children. Tully is good. Charlize Theron gives one of the best performances. Of course, she gained weight for the role. Seeing her closing her eyes in a car while her child is screaming and kicking her seat. Like she is about to snap was incredible. The film is like a modern day Mary Poppins, were a night nanny comes and makes everything all better. The plot was good. Marlo (Charlize Theron) is a mother of two and pregnant with the third. Her son struggles with a development disorder were he has a mental breakdown when things do not go his way. Or is afraid to flush the public toilet cause it would make a loud noise. The school he goes too. The principle is trying to inform Marlo that they need to hire him an aid. Since the teacher cannot focus on just him when they have other kids to teach. And their daughter is a reasonable child that tries to help her mother. When Marlo has her baby. She barely has time for herself. She barely gets any sleep, tries to get chores, and take the kids to school and face against a meeting with the principle everytime. Her husband Drew (Ron Livingston) is busy with work and only shows up in the evening and than is busy playing video games. While her brother Craig (Mark Duplass) suggest they hire a night nanny. They hire Tully (Mackenzie Davis). A night nanny that does all the babysitting at night, she does the cleaning, and bakes desserts for the morning. Tully's plot is like one of those life lesson themes. Were Tully suggest that Marlo has it easy. She has the sameness which she takes for granted. While Marlo is missing her earlier years, were her body physique was thin, and she had plenty of energy. Seeing Tully and Marlo sharing their experiences and how one has it better was great. Tully is an interesting character. She has plenty of energy, open spirit perspective on life. Having newborns can be stressful on the parents. It is the most beautiful things in life with the babies growing every day and keeping you up all night. Charlize Theron was fantastic. Seeing her character being exhausted, trying to take care of her kids, and when she sits down at the dinner table. You can see that she is exhausted mentally and physically. Mackenzie Davis was great as Tully. She is like the modern day Mary Poppins. She is always cheery and energetic on life. She is the night nanny that every mother needs. Overall, Tully is a good comedy drama film. Charlize Theron and Mackenzie Davis are great. The plot and concept of the beauty aspect of mothers dealing with newborns and their kids can be raw. But its those small moments that every mother can cherish with the bond and their babies.

capone666 TullyThe best thing about having a nanny is they get all the flak from the mommy shamers at the playground.Mind you, the mommy in this dramedy would just be happy with some shuteye.A middle-age mother of two, Marlo (Charlize Theron), is straddled with an unplanned pregnancy and an inattentive husband (Ron Livingston). Unable to cope with the lack of sleep, Marlo hires a young night nanny, Tully (Mackenzie Davis), to tend to her babe while she rests. Auspiciously, Marlo and Tully share similar viewpoints which help Marlo get through her post-partum slump. But Tully is not exactly who she seems.Saved by an out of left field third act, this honest but sluggish portrayal of modern motherhood and marriage has its merits beyond the strong acting and twist-ending, but they're mostly all depressing.And, as with every nanny, you'll eventually have to fight them for your child's love.
